3.9 AROMA 9/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 16/2037.5cl. Bottle, best before 07/08/2030, Lotnr L. This smells sharp and sour, the appearance a cloudy yellow with a light small head, very light carbonation. Taste is medium sour lingering on the palate as a good gueuze should. It’s a fairly smooth light gueuze, not as overwhelming as other examples but that is not necessarily a negative, depends on what you are looking for. Very similar to Boon Oude Gueuze to my untrained mouth.

2011 350 ml bottle from Brickstore cellar. Birthday bash - thanks Lee!! Pours a cloudy orange pour with a ring of residual white head after sitting and leaving it for an unnoticed bit. Smell is barnyard, grassy, lemony, lacto. Fantastic nose. Taste is light sour tart, lemony, a bit funky, earthy, fantastic. Dry finish with lingering smooth tartness. Story of the evening, company made this a fantastical beer memory. And the beer was damn fine.

375 ml bottle poured into a tulip. Pours hazy deep orange body with a small head, minimal lacing. Aroma is strong sour, tart fruit, wood. Taste is medium acidic and sweet citrus up front, mildly sour and bitter to finish. Medium body, flat carbonation and a long, dry sour finish.
Overall: Tasty and enjoyable. Not too sweet or heavy; refreshing while still complex to be interesting.

Bottla at M-Cafe, Leuven: Pale amber coloured brew with an good tart taste with some fruitiness, drybitter indeed and not so sour due the blending i think.

Bottle 37,5 cl, BBE 07.08.2030. Pours dark golden in color with a small whitish head. A bit funk, some wheat and light notes of vinegar in aroma. Tart mouthfeel at first. Some lemon mixed with a bit of sour notes in taste. Just awesome. Got inspired by the Toer de Geuze 2013, so I had to open a bottle of Hanssens Oude Gueuze for this occasion. Actually this isn’t that tart towards the end, instead some more softer and fruitier notes appear. No need to say that this is a really tasty gueuze after all with some lingering sour notes in finish.
